説明

This article explores the local development of international expositions in modern Korea as a cultural machinery for constructing “a new modern nation,” through its focus on the Chos.n Industrial Exhibition of 1915. It examines the exhibition not only as a means of Japanese colonial subjugation, but also as a cultural spectacle whose meaning and effects are not reducible to its manifest political purpose. Drawing on the premise that the 1915 exhibition was an economic, political, and cultural battlefield across which different visions of industrialization, modernization, and civilization fought for ascendancy in the shaping of a new national identity, this study seeks to show how the exhibition captured and positioned visitors as new modern Korean subjects. It examines in detail the actual structure and workings of the exhibition and analyzes visitors’ experiences and responses to the exhibition, in particular focusing on contradictions and conflicts in the interpellation of the subject of the exhibition.
